Pete and Lou's Big Adventure
Here we met up with my family for a week and stayed in alovely mansion just north of the city. Seeing my mum etc again was amazing but the week went so fast - too fast! You never realise how much you miss people until you see them again or when they are gone again.
Anyways we had a fab week - we went to Steve Irwins zoo, where me and Pete held a koala...aaah. Although we didnt see the man himself we were impressed to see his little boy playing amongst the kangaroos. Yep thats our claim to fame, even if it is terribely poor!! We also went to Sea World where my brother and sister swam with dolphins and sharks. It absolutely pi**ed it down when we went to Tamborine mountain - so we didnt see much, but we did have the best meat pie ever! So it wasn't all bad.
We went into the centre to do some well earned shopping - even if my stepdad wasn't too impressed. We also went to a fake beach/lagoon which to our surprise was quite nice.
The highlight of the week had to be the numerous amount of "sporting" tournaments we had. First there was ping pong; I cant remember who won but Pete and Rob were disqualified for drugs usage (they had a beer whilst playing). Next was bowling (is this a sport - Pete); Rob was crowned the winner and Mum the loser after being overtaken by me at the last minute...ha ha. Lastly there was Uno, which I must admit has to be my favourite game ever! I lost and was made to do a chicken dance in a public place...dont ask.
Anyway we had a great week, too short by a long shot but we enjoyed every minute (thanks guys we miss you already).
We now say goodbye to Oz for the time being and look forward to Fiji and then New Zealand.
Take care,
Louise and Pete.
